*mini rant*

I hate when people confuse the words "formally" and "formerly". Really annoying!

That and double negatives. makes my flesh crawl. Sure, I know there are more serious problems in the world today, but that kind of stuff just ticks me off.

*rant over*

Leaving for biometrics appt. in a moment!

And saying "I could care less" instead of "I couldn't care less"! :protest:

THAT is my BIGGEST pet peeve! :ranting:

Sorry, I usually lurk in here, but had to post when I read that. :P

That bugs me too.

However, I recently saw in a siggy someone announcing they had "formerly" proposed and I am thinking #######? :blink:

No need to lurk Lori! We're a fun, if a bit evil, bunch!! :lol:

Well my SO is English (obviously), and I get a kick out of this thread. :lol:

well someone could have formerly proposed, and been turned down, and they more formally proposed and been accepted :devil:

:bonk::lol:

I know the feeling. Stuff like that drives me batty. It's always a battle between good and evil whenever I see something like that and am tempted to comment. post-21394-1208974566.gif

I try very hard not to say something directly to the person, hence the need for such mini rants in this thread!

Krikit, I love your little emoticons!

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

aww *hugs* StP :luv:

It will get better, moving and changing everything is tough, but it will get better! Not easier, but you will adjust. In fact, I have a feeling that you will single-handedly revolutionize Texas!!!

:lol:

can I start by just revolutionising Houston? I promise I'll get to the rest of the state when I can :D

thanks for sympathy... I'm just SO tired of doing everything on my own :(

which is the point of the process, I know; don't worry, I don't miss the irony... ;)

Awww StP, it's probably hardest now cos the end is so near. Seeing your family and having Dave in Aus, and finally landing in Houston.

If you need any help with the packing, I'm free for the weekend :star:

I'll revolutionise Austin as soon as I get all done with Houston :D

gimme... eight months ;)

thanks Poiteen, I know you're probably right... it's just SO draining, trying to do all this on your own; I'm just so tired and down about everything... even though almost everything's ready to go, I'm still worried about the truck getting a spot outside the house; my street is TERRIBLE for parking and it's a bus route so double-parking is out of the question... plus I have to virtually pack my suitcases now, and then live out of them until Monday, because I need to know how much I can take with me, and then the rest just has to go in shipping :(

it's that - the organisation and sorting - that is so difficult, not the actual packing, which is relatively easy :(
